FF9 OST Disc 3Grom's review : Another 'tension theme' with fast playing, and a strong tune, which plays on several occasions throughout the game. 7/10 Grom's review : Awesome Piano solo ! Excellently composed with a really great tune and rhythm. This theme is also known as Beatrix's Theme, as it plays during certain scenes involving her. 8/10 Grom's review : Another dungeon theme, but with a slight dark touch to it. Quite an interesting tune, but not really my cup of tea. 4/10 Grom's review : Annoying tune that plays in the place where everyone has a comical accent =D. Not much to write about though. 3/10 Grom's review : Contrary to the previous track on this disc, this track is awesome. Great use of instruments and a good composition, thumbs up. 7/10 Grom's review : A semi-sad tune that plays often during boring parts of the game. A nice tune with kool backing. 6/10 Grom's review : I'm unable to contain my giggles when I hear this track, as it constantly reminds me of the optional scene in which Quina marries Vivi =]. With that set aside, its not a very good track, it sounds somewhat basic, and the constant note in the background gets REALLY annoying ... 3/10 Grom's review : Boyant little Eiko's Theme. A somewhat jolly tune nicely composed, though it only plays once if I recall correctly ... ? 6/10 Grom's review : Yuk. Appalling tune, this could have been so much better. 2/10 Grom's review : Plays just once, and not for very long. This track is quite well written, but it just doesnt sound right, its missing something to give it that kick. 5/10 Grom's review : Quite an evil sounding dungeon theme. Very very well composed and with a good choice of instruments, this track fits the dungeon pretty well. 6/10 Grom's review : Now, I like Amarant, he's a kool character and all, but his theme sux. Big time. He could of had a mysterious sounding track, or even a slightly evil sounding one, but Nobuo opted for this crap. Bad move. 3/10 Grom's review : A rather slow version of Kuja's Theme (most wont actually reconise this). This makes an interesting different version of Kuja's song, with very different instruments. 6/10 Grom's review : A slightly slower version of 'Theme of the Tantalus' from disc 2, which features the same mischievous feel to it as the other version, despite being composed entirely of different instruments. 6/10 Grom's review : This part of the game just wound me up, and the music to it annoys me too. But I guess it wouldnt be Final Fantasy without a stupid part in it. 4/10 Grom's review : The Tetra Master card game music (i think ... never played that game much in FF9). Can't say I like this tune though, it has a rather basic backing, and a poor use of instruments. 4/10 Grom's review : The Moogle theme, which isnt much to really talk about, although it is rather well composed. 5/10 Grom's review : Now you're talking. This track rulz, it plays during the consecutive battles (and scenes) in which Steiner and Beatrix valiantly battle hoards of monsters to stop then overrunning Alexandria. A different version of 'Rose Of May' near the start of this disc. Very well composed. 8/10 Grom's review : Quite a contrast to most of the songs featured in FF9, and it was a good attempt by Nobuo, but it really didnt strike much in my opinion. Masterfully written, but thats all the praise I can give it. 5/10 Grom's review : Awesome church organ solo, brilliantly composed, and fits the atmosphere perfectly. 8/10 Grom's review : French for Green Eye(s). A remix of the first track on the first disc, and it sounds appaling. Big mistake .... 1/10 Grom's review : Excellent remix of 'The Place I'll Return To Someday' from disc 1. It features nothing but vocals, and has a rather haunting touch to it. It plays once during the whole game, when strange mechanical faces come to life and recount the downfall of an alien civilisation. Awesome stuff. 8/10 Grom's review : As much as I wanted to say I hate this song (mainly cos i kept fudging up the mini game in which u have to sneak across the room - and thus heard this track loop MANY times) its actually very well written and composed. 7/10 Grom's review : A bland tune which somewhat lacks in characteristics. Not really much to write about. 3/10 Grom's review : In keeping up with the numerous references to previous Final Fantasy games, This track is actually a remake of 'Gurgu Volcano' from Final Fantasy (1), and a good remake at that. Pretty well composed with a good choice of instruments. 7/10 Grom's review : This track sounds like 'Cornelia Castle' from FF1 PSX remake, though the tunes are completely different, the instruments and their roles are identical (although FF9 came before the remake). Im not too keen on this track to be honest, it doesnt appeal to me. 3/10 Grom's average score : 5.2/10 <-- Back to Disc selection
